[Solved] Clear ComboBox Selection on Load

Hi,

I am using several MultiColumn ComboBoxes in a Windows Form, and would like the combo boxes to have nothing selected when the form is first loaded. The boxes will not have any text in them, and the user will have to use the drop down to select a row. Once a row has been selected, the box will show the first column of the selected row.

I have tried using the ClearSelection() method on the EditorControl of the combobox, in both the form shown and form load methods, but the combo box still shows the first record when it loads.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

[Solved] Inconsistent display of hierarchies in fieldlist

OLAP dimensions are not displayed consistently in the field chooser in RadPivotFieldList. Dimensions with a multi-level hierarchy are displayed directly below the dimension name (see Publication date in the attached example), but single-level hierarchies are shown under 'more fields'. When displaying the same cube in Microsoft SSMS both types are displayed in the same way.

Thanks

[Solved] Show/Hide weekends in TimelineView with resources

Hello,
I can't find out how to hide weekends in timelineview with resource grouping.

I found an example with DayViewBase in your winforms demo, but for timelineview there is no DataAreaElement to use

private void radSchedulerNavigator1_ShowWeekendStateChanged(object sender, StateChangedEventArgs args)

{

if (this.radSchedulerDemo.ActiveView as SchedulerDayViewBaseView != null)

{

(this.radSchedulerDemo.SchedulerElement.ViewElement as SchedulerDayViewElement).DataAreaElement.ScrollView.Value = Point.Empty;

(this.radSchedulerDemo.SchedulerElement.ViewElement as SchedulerDayViewElement).DataAreaElement.Table.ScrollToWorkHours();

}

my ActiveView is SchedulerTimelineView
and radSchedulerDemo.SchedulerElement.ViewElement is TimelineGroupingByResourcesElement datatype.

Is any way how to make it work?

Thank you
Robert

How to conditonally paint a row background color

I need to have a button on a form that when clicked - iterate through all rows of the RADGridview and change some of the rows background color according to some criteria.
All of the samples suggest using 'RowFormatting' event, but it doesn't sound applicable here.

So if my code looks like:

foreach (GridViewRowInfo rowInfo in grdOrderlinesBase.Rows)

{
...
}

How do I make the background of the row corresponding to the i'th rowInfo become red?

Thanks

SelectedItemChanged

Hi,

I can't get the SelectedItemChanged to fire when I'm clicking one of the arrows in a radCarousel. There is no problem with the SelectedIndexChanged. But shouldn't they both(SelectedIndexChanged and SelectedItemChanged) fire ? As both the index and item chance when clicking the arrow?

Regards,
Thomas

Issue when End Time is 12:00 AM on Month View

When I set an appointment to something like:
Start Time - 1/15/2013 4:00:00 PM
End Time - 1/16/2013 12:00:00 AM

the appointment spans both days (1/15 and 1/16). Since 1/16/2012 12:00 AM is the same thing as 1/15/2012 24:00, I would not expect this behavior. See the attached image for an example.

I realize that appointments in the month view are taking up the whole day horizontally but an 8 hour appointment starting at 4:00 PM should not look like it is also spilling over into the next day. At least not in my opinion.

I also realize that I can get around this by having the user enter 11:59:59 PM. But 1) its not accurate and 2) its clunky.

Microsoft's Outlook handles this correctly.

Masked Edit Box doesn't retain it's mask when assigning a value

Hi -

I am using the 2012 Q3 2012.3.1211.40 version of the Masked Edit box.
I set the mask property to 'c' for (US) currency. During design time the masked edit box displays properlt $0.00. It also displays fine when the form initially starts up. Not only until you assign a value to the text property does the formatting go away.

I have not experienced this in the previous version of the masked edit box. I have not made any changes to the source code as well.

Can you indicate if there was a change made or a bug introduced to the Masked Editbox?

Thanks
Bob
